9/27 found some nice ones...

I hunted a big back yard that butts up to my yard owned by the sweetest old lady in the world. most areas were very trashy and I know there was a barn and and a silo at this site somewhere. I could tell alot of the ground had been moved around and there were a lot of big things buried. I found a couple of areas that seemed to be undisturbed ground and found most of my keepers in these areas. The last time I was out I found a silver half and a store card, and deja vu today! The Franklin half and the store card were only a few feet from each other. Had fun and found lots of goodies, including 4 spoons (2 sterling, 1 plated) The cars are either early red line hotwheels or Lesney's. The store card is a little on the toasty side but I'll take it (number 7 for me) Thanks for looking all, HH <Griff

You dug some really cool stuff. I love the lion on the key - I think I might actually have one similar to that. I dig the business card from GR-have you been able to find in Richard's or any other database? I'm sure it is probably around the CW era. You'll have to bake the sweet old lady a pie and get back to digging up more!

Dude - you find more cool stuff than anyone I know! You get the silver award this year
I really "dig" the sterling spoons, and the BIG silver, hard to come by...let alone the CW storecard - still waiting for my first. Nice old foreign coin too. Congrats on the great hunt, wish I had some neighbors with treasure trove yards like that!

Outstanding yard finds......obviously never hit before. Now I realize why you didn't want me knocking on your neighbors door . Wow - love it all......Silver, CW token and relics. Never saw a Portugal coin that old dug before. Congrats on the hard to find Franklin!! Those kinda yards are hard to top. Way to go bro!!

Sweet digs, J. Congrats on the nice Franklin half...sure don't find halves very often. WTG on the CW store card; I found the same one in 2012. Glad you were able to get a hunt in.

HH
p.s. Love the lion key!
